young suffer terribly. But they recover.
Afternrard we on't suffer so much, MA
we don't reco er. 1 wouldn t defend
you against yeurseif if I thought you
seriously- in the wrong. If you know
yourself to be, You shouldn't let rue."
Thus put upon his honor, Colville was
a long time thouehtful. "flow can I
ten ?" he asked. IaYou know the facts;
you Can indge."
"If I were to judge at all, I should
say you were likely to do a greater
wrong than any you have committed."
"1 don't understand you." '
"Miss Grahain is a young girl, and I
have no doubt t at the young clergyman
—what was his name?" .
"Morton. 10 you think—do you
suppose there , as anything in that'"
demanded Colville, with eagerness that
a more humorous observer than Mr.
Waters might have `found ludierous;-
o He was an admirable young fellow,
with an excellent head and a noble
heart. • I underrated him at one tinie
time, though I recognized his ' good
qualities afterward ; bat I was afraid
she did not appreciate him." - •
"I'm not ao- aare of that," said the
old man, with an astuteness of -manner
• which Mille thought authorized by
some sort of definite knowledge.
"I would give the world if it were
so !" he cried, fervently.
"But you are really very much more
concerned in something else."
- ,, In what else ?"
"Can't you imagine?"
"No," said Colville ; but he felt him-
self -er.., owing very red in the face.
"Then I have no more
"Yes; speak !" And after an interval'
Colville added, "13 it anything about—
von hinted at something long ago—Mrs.
Bowen ?'
"Yes," the old man nodded his
head. "Do.you owe her nothing ?"-
- "Owe her nothing? Everything!
My life! What self-respect is left me !
Immeasurable gratitude! The homage
of a man saved- from himself as far as
his stupidity and selfishness would per-
mit' Why, I—I - love her !" The
words gave him courage. "In every
'breath' and pulse! She is the most
beautiful and gracious and wisest and
best woman in the world! I have
loved her ever since I met her _here in
Florence last winter. Good heavens!
I must have always loved -her! But,"
he added, falling from the rapture of
this confession, " she simply loathes
me!'
- " It was certainly not to your credit
that you were willing at the saMe time
to marry some one else."
" Willing ! I wasn't willing' I was
hound hand and foot ! Yes—I don't
care what you think of my weakness—I
was not a free agent. It's very well to
condemn one's self, but it may be carried
too far; injustice to others is not the
only injustice, or the Worst. wha 1
was willing to do was to keep my word
—to prevent . that poor child, if pos-
sible, from ever finding out her mis-
. I
take."
If Colville expected this heroic con
fession to impress his listener, he was
disappointed. Mr. Waters made him
• no reply, and he was obliged to ask,
with a degree of sarcastic impatience,
"1 suppose you taearc...ely blame me for
that ?' ' 1
"Oh, I don't know that I blame
people for things. There are times
when it seems as if We were all puppets,
pulled this way or that, without con-
trol of our own movements. Hamlet
was able to browbeat Rosencrantz and
Unildenstern with his business of the
pipe ; but if they had been in a position
to answer they might have told him that
it required far less skill to play upon a
man than. any other instrument. Most
af us, in fact, go ,sounding on Without
any special application of breath or
fingers, repeating the tunes that were
played_ originially upon '-other- men. It
appears to me -that you suffered yourself
to do something of the kind in this af-
fair. We are a long time learning to
act with common -sense, -or even cord -
moo sanity, in what are Called matters
af the affections. A broken e• gagement
inav be a bad thing in some cases, but I
am:inclined to think that it is the very
best thing that cold& happen in most
cases where it , happens. The evil is
done loner before ; the broken engage-
ment is merely sanative, and so far bene-
ficent."
lhe ald gentleman rose, and Colville,
dazed by the recognition of his own
cowardice and absurdity, did not try to
detain him. But he followed him down
to the outer gate of the hotel.
(To be continued.)
True to Duty.
Hugh M'Ga,herty, a son of the Emer-
ald Isle, who had volunteered from
Philadelphia in the 16th Regiment of
Infantry, was stationed on the beach at
Sullivan s -Island, with strict orders to
between two points, and to let no
eme pass without the countersign, which
was ,to be communicated in a whisper.
Two hours afterwards, the corporal with
the relief discovered, by moonlight,
Hugh to his waist in water, the tide
having set in since he had been posted.
Who goes there'" Hugh shouted.
Relief," answered the corporal.
Halt, relief. Advance, corporal, and.
give the countersign."
"Corporal : "I'm not going. in there
to be drowned. Come out here; and let
me relieveyou."
Hugh: " Never a bit; the leftenaut
told me not to lave the post."
Carporals " Well, then, Ill leave you
in the water all night" (going away as
he spoke.)
"Ha -it I. I'll put a hole in ye if
ye pass without the countersign. Thom's

and levelling his gun.)

of argument, and wade in to the faithful
sentinel, who rejoined, " The tide has

A Novelty in Surgery.
AN- ELECTRIC LICHT INSIDE OF
A atAN'S RIP ZONE. -
" XeW York Times : An electric light
ita.ide the hip bone of a Mau is an un
spectacle, and yet it was witnessed
rev( ntly at the Post -graduate Medical
School in East Twentieth steeet. The
light was used in an operation to cure
hip -disease. A, student, 22 years old, in
the k-oIlege of Burlington, Vermont,
slipped on the pavement about two
nionths ago and strained his thigh. He
soon lost the use of his left leg, and suf-
fered excrutiating pain. He came to
New York, ,was placed on a cot in the
Post -graduate Hospital, and Dr. J. Mil-
ton Roberts, a professor in the institu-
tion, performed on a him a remarkable
operation.
The young man was put under the in-
fluence of ether, amd Dr. Roberts with a
scalpel laid bard a portion of the hip
bone, abotit three inches wide. Then he
called into play a bone -cutting machine,
invented by himself and called the elec-
tro -osteotome, It is worked by an elec-
tric battery, and can revobre surgical
instruments 12,000 revolutions, if neces-
sary, in a minute.
The doctor attached a small drill to
the instrument and cut out portions of
the hip bone up to its head, a distance
of four inehes. These pieces of: bone
• under the microscope showed disease.
The doctor then used still! larger drills
until there was a space,large enough to
admit the end, of a man's finger. He
now wanted to see the exact condition
of affairs insidethebone.- To do so he
• used 8..nove1ty for thia class of work—a
tiny incandescent electric light, about
as big as a pea. This Dr. Roberts intro-
duced 'inside of the --passage in the bone,
and the several flashes of light enabled
him to see just where the diseased bone
was. Then he took up his drill again and
cut out diseased bone wherever it were
necessary as easily as if the bone were
open before him on an operating table.
Dr. Roberts put in a drainage tube to
take off diseased matter that might form,
sewed up the wound and applied anti-
septic bandages.A hypodermic injec-
tion of morphine was given, to the pa-
tient, and when he recovered from the
effect of the ether he was in a- satisfac-
tory condition, and itigconjectured that
he will in a comparatively short time be
able to use his disabled limb.
What Was ;kis Creed?
He left a load of anthracite
In front of a poor widow's door,
When the deep snow, frozen and white,
Wrapped street and aquare, mountain and
moor.
That was his deed;
He did it well,
"What was his creed'
I cannot tell.
Blest "in his basket and his store,"
In sitting. down and rising up,
When more he got, he gave the more,
-
Withholding not the crust and cup;
lie took the lead -
In each good task—
" What was his creed r
I did fret ask.
His charity was like the Snow' .
Soft, white and silken in itsfall
Not like the noisy winds that blow
From shivering trees the leaves, a pali
For 'Hewer and weed
Dropping below, a'
"What was his creed'
The poor may know.
He had great faith in loaves of 'bread,
For hungry people, young and old,
And hope inopiring'words he said
To him he sheltered trent the cold.
For man must feed, •
As well as pray,
"What was his creed?"
I, cannot say.
In words he did not put his trust;
In faith his words were never writ:
He loved to Share his (asp and crost;
:With any one who needed it. •
hetime of need
A •friend was .he—
" What was his creed?'
• He told not me:
He put his trust in Heaven and worked
Ever along with hand and head;
And what he gave incharity
Sweetened his &deep and daily bread.
Let us take heed,
For life is brief !
Adopt his creed
And give relief. •
Clippings from the Salvation
Army Almanac.
The Salvation Army Almanac for 1886
is the officia,1 prociamatiOn of what a sol-
dier is expected to do every day:
1. Get up at the proper time without
being called twice. _
2. Begin. praising G 04 as soon as he
wakes.
3. Keep on doing so all day, till he
goes to sleep again.
4. Do his Work to the best of his
ability without needing to be watched.
5. Bear all the grumbling, ill-treat-
ment, or neglect he may have to suffer,
quietly and gladly.
6. Seize every opportunity to do kind-
ness to anybody, especially to any who
treat him unkindly.
7. Dress so as to show anyone at the
other side of the street that he is a Sal-
vation Arni old ier.
8. Talk and act to prove that he- is fit
th be one.
9. Give all the time, money, strength
and skill you can to Salvation Army
service of some kind.
10. Make a deep impression on some-
body's soul for good.
11. Get the life of his own soul in -
'creased by the power of the Holy Ghost.
12. Go to bed without living gossiped
with or knjured anyone.
I. Give up to the Lord any ill -feel-
ings, cares or doubts that may bare
come during the day.
14. Do or bear_whatever else the Lord
may wish.
This almanac is full of Salvationist
spirit, and the manner in which events
are chronicled is characteristic. For
instance:
"Eighteen hundred and eighty-six
may be your last year. For God's sake
be desperate, and do something for the
millions teeming to hell.
Gaieties.
—An Irishman, writing a sketch of
his life, says he:early ran away from his
father because he discovered he. was only
his uncle.
--One of the peculiar things about this
life is the fact that the child next dose: is
always so much more disagreeable and
peevish than your own.
— Pretty Teacher: "Now, Johnny
Wells, can you tell inc what is meant by
a miracle ;" Johnny: Yes, teacher.
Mother says if you don't marry the new
parson 'twill be a miracle."
—A little girl, aged nine, called her
her father to her bedside the other
evening. " Papa," said the little diplo-
mat, "1 want to ask your advice.' -

-" What do you think it will be best to

ous, with a fine touch of sarcasm.
"Well.- signed the editor wearily,
"there's as much as there was in your
promise to pay for it last August, any-
.

- Johnston once dined with a
Scottish lady who had hotch-potch for
dinner. After the doctor had tasted it,
she tasted it, and ask him if it was
good. "It is good for hogs, ma'am,"
said the doctor. •" Then, pray," said

—Pretty girl to Charles (her betrath-
ed)—" Charley, how far is it around the
world? Isn't it twenty-four thousan—"
Charles (puts both arms around her)—
" That's all a mistake,my love, it is
only about twenty-four inches."
--Dining an examination, a boy. was
asked the reason for the effect of heat
and. cold. "The cold draws things to
gether, but the heat swells them,' the
boy replied, "and that is the reason the
days are long in summer and short in
winter."
—An old lady from the country, who
attended the opera for the first time,
entered as one of the choruses was com-
mencing. " Ah," she remarked, "they
don't care now that they have our money.
See, they are all singing together, so
that they -can get through sooner."
---Aulad who had been bathing was in
the act of dressing himself, when one of
his shoes rolled down the rocks and dis-
appeared in the water. In his attempt
to rescue it he lost the other one also,
whereupon contemplating his feet with sr
most melancholy expression, he apos-
trophized them, Well, your are a nice
pair of orphans, ain't you ?" •
—A lady travelling to a summer re-
sort was annoyed by the expectorations
of a fellow behind her, and when the
conductor entered she drew up her
dress and asked, Conductor, have
you not any rule in regard to spitting
in the car ?" The genial ticket -puncher
smiled .on her and responded, "No,
mann, you can spit around anywhere
you like. '
•=-A mistress iq an inland village in
the south of Scotland gave her servant a
crab to boil, with instructions to let it
boil for a quarter of an hour. On corn-
ing into the kitchen some time after,
she saw the servant turning away at the
drab in a pot, and on asking if she had
not taking it off yet, was. answered,
" No ! It's been boiling for the last
hour, and it's as hard as a staue yet?".
—" Yes, man, Tammaa, it's a great
matter getting the first word in every-
thing. The ither day my ain son Tam
did me the cleanest ever ye saw that
way. I was coming oot yae morning,
about five o'clock, when wha should I
see but Tam cOming in. He had never
been in his bed—awa, seeing the lasses,,

he, as sune as -he saw me, " ye are weel
air that hasna a wife tae seek like me !"
and he was past me an' up the Stair afore
I could say a word to him."
- --" Who's that at the kitchen door ?"
asked Mr: Jollikin of his young
wife -1 last Sunday just after breakfast.
"It's_ a tramp, and' I am bothered to
death with them," she replied. Wait'
a minute,- my dear," said her husband,
" Ill fix him so he won't trouble you
amyl inore:" He kissed her and went
out, and in five minutes he returned.
" Well," queried his wife, " did you fix
him" "Ye; I gave him something to
cat.3' "Why, you shmildn'thave done
that. He'll be sure to come right back
and worry me more than ever,"she said
pettilantly, Oh, no, he won't. I ga,ve
him a pocketful of those biscuits you
make for breakfast."

.Sam Ward's Courtship Book.
Many a billet-doux went to •and fro
in fiTncte Sam's early courting days, and
eve y sort of weather from May to Dec -
em er was manifested in the missives;
but finally the courtly gallant Ton, and
Mis Astor was his bride. In a senti-
me tal moment, the_bridegroom produc-
ed a 1 the letters he had ever received
fro his sweetheart ; but the look of
triu xph on -his face did not long survive
fors le promptly uncovered to his gaze
all the lines be himself had written. He
did pot perhaps change his mind about
the '•uperiority of masculine affection,
but there was a cessation of hostilities
on hat line from that day forth. That
isn' -all of the story, though, nor all of
theOiilosophy ▪ Those love -letters wei e
carefully assorted, compared date by:
dat ', and then, each preceding its an- '
swe , they were bound t)gether in a
mig ty volume. A stranger would have
found them highly interesting to idle
tim ' away upon; and they of the inner
circ re,. how- they would have gloated
oveu the hon -bons! Not all of these
episli.
les, however, were loaded -down
caril'pes of sentiment and affection.
Son b lovers quarrel sometimes. That
was the exceptional sort of lovers that
Mr. Ward and Miss Astor happened to
be. Sam, he was proud of his sarcasm;
Mis. Astor, she had the right to be.
The result was that clashings, when
tliey came, lacked nothing in animation.
But the sweet and the bitter were bound
ther between the covers together.
'And "—this is what Prince Sam I is
quo ed in after days as saying—" there
was ittfinite fun and infinite good in that
old(1ook of ours, with its tell-tale record
)
of 4 criss-cross courtship.. It made
many an evening merry—all for our sel-
ves. , It *wafted away many a cloud, for
Ve way before the materialized re-
el
nev could a difference arise that would
noti
colleetion of_some one of our tiny diffi-
culties come and gone. Old'quarrels—
old love quarrels that are settled, at
lesst—always are tinged with the crisp-
est sort of humor. And never did one
of us get cloudy but out came that in-
evitable volume, and old-tinic battles
provhked risibility that was death -to
all threatened ill -humor in the present.
That book was worth a fortune to -us.
Whth she died it was the most sacred
possession left me. Its creation was
the happiest thought of all, any life."—
